After I updated from 2.1.1 to 2.2.0 I see this error when trying to use scripts.  
{"type":"illegal\_argument\_exception","reason":"Unable to find on disk file script [closest\_listing] using lang [groovy]"}

closest\_lisitng.groovy is the script located at /etc/elasticsearch/scripts

Was working fine on 2.1.1.

Any ideas?
